Generate Alarm/Event – GE Command

Testing the Action Routine or an alarm is an important part of the process. The SAI command can be used to test an Action Routine. The Generate Alarm/Event command allows you to test any alarm defined in the Action Table. This command generates the Alarm or Event as if the data had been received on the host port or an internal Event had occurred. This command is useful for debugging or modifying Action Tables.

Type GE followed by the event that you want the Terminal server to generate. For example, type GE .AUTHFAIL. to generate the event

.AUTHFAIL. You can also generate a “long” event-for example,, GE DTA005 1 0020 0031 7.

Alternatively, type GE and then enter the alarm/event to be generated at the prompt. Note that “Enter alarm/event” limits the number of characters. If you want to generate a “long” event, use the method described above.

Type the mnemonic for the alarm or event you want to have performed and press the Enter key. The system will confirm that the alarm/event was generated.
